No, RIAJ certificate all releases by shipped copies not by copies sold in stores.
(m)u was certified a million since it shipped over a million.
MW is certified platinum because it shipped over 250,000 copies.

(for others example, kumi's Kingdom sold 606,000 and was certified triple platinum for shipping over 750,000 copies, kumi's BEST ~second session~ was certified 2 million for shipping over 2 million copies though it sold around 1,820,000 in stores and not 2 million).

That's how certifications work.
